Methylprednisolone (MP) induced acute liver injury has been reported in patients who received pulse steroid therapy. Several case reports and a case series of MP induced hepatotoxicity in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Graves ophthalmopathy.
In this correspondence, we present a case of aggressive large B-cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) diagnosed in the stomach of a patient undergoing hormone therapy for prostate carcinoma.
Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, also known as Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS), is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disease with an incidence of 1/200 000-1/8 300 [1]. Among them, the most common sites of tumors include gastrointestinal tract, cervix, ovary, breast, lung, pancreas, etc.
To assess the significance of early prognostication using the Bedside Index for Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP) score combined with the Modified Computed Tomography Severity Index (MCTSI) in determining the severity of acute pancreatitis. 153 patients with acute pancreatitis were retrospectively screened from June 2020 to May 2021 at Ruijin Hospital. A total of 141 patients were included in this study and were divided into two groups.
Colonoscopy is critical in colorectal cancer screening and the effect of intestinal preparation affects the accuracy of diagnosis, especially in elderly patients. The commonly used Polyethylene Glycol Electrolyte, PEG, is found inadequate in bowel cleansing for the elderly patients.
Systemic therapy for unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (u-HCC) has advanced in recent years, particularly immunotherapy. Atezolizumab plus bevacizumab has shown significant survival benefit in u-HCC, and recent AASLD guidelines recommend this regimen as a first-line option.
Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) is a recent tool of tumor ablation techniques added to the management of Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer (LAPC). As opposed to the thermal ablative techniques, IRE induces cancer cell death by the delivery of high-voltage electrical pulses.
Metastasis from internal neoplasms to the cutaneous is uncommon. They can be metachronous or synchronous. Widely synchronous metastasis from the gastric to the cutaneous is a rare clinical condition. We reported a male patient with widely synchronous cutaneous metastasis from the gastric at the age of 59 years. Widely metastatic mass as a patch nodüler lesions before the primary gastric tumor diagnosis.
Cancer of the pancreas has a lifetime incidence in the United States of 1.6% [1]. It accounts for 3.2% of all new cancers and is the 12th most common cancer. The survival of those diagnosed with cancer of the pancreas is unfortunately poor. The majority of pancreatic carcinoma patients are diagnosed at advanced stages of disease [2].
